NO EVENTS/PARTIES/LOUD BEHAVIOR Welcome to our beautiful, modern, country estate! Situated in the middle of open fields, along woods, the Manor is delicately decorated and immaculately cleaned between each stay. Landscaped patio & pool, fireplaces, playroom, swing set, bouncy house, ping-pong, gym, games & toys, nature, wildlife & activity - Hawk Manor is the perfect place to gather & relax with family & friends. Picturesque pool, patio and decking, an outdoor fireplace, pool sun loungers, outdoor sofa seating, outdoor dining table, outdoor island grill, outdoor fridge, large living room with wood burning fireplace, large dining table, extra sunrooms, and music room. There is plenty of land for all kinds of games and sports. The property is among nature. The name Hawk Manor stems from the many hawks you will likely see flying overhead during your stay. It’s also likely that you will see one or many butterflies, ladybugs, frogs, bunnies, squirrels, rodents, deer, birds, bees, flies, etc. We take measures to keep the wildlife out of the house. If you open windows (open only from top down) or doors, please be sure to keep screens closed and throw out trash daily. There can also be poison ivy, sumac, or oak if you touch vegetation past the groomed yard area. It’s highly recommended to stay out of the woods as getting a rash from those plants can be very uncomfortable. This is NOT a party house. Absolutely NO EVENTS - NO WEDDINGS, NO ENGAGEMENT PARTIES, NO BIRTHDAY PARTIES - no events of any sort are allowed. Disrespectful behavior and house rules violations will NOT be tolerated. Even with less people than the guest limit, if there is any sort of partying behavior, it will not be tolerated. This is not a party location and neighbors are sensitive to music and yelling. If you want to play music loudly (e.g. louder than a mini Bluetooth speaker used at half capacity) or drunk talk/yell especially outside and especially after dark, this is not a good fit, so please do not book a stay here. Do NOT expect a super value discount property. This is a very large (well over 5000sf) house. The amount of rooms could fit a much greater sleeping capacity if setup for it. That is NOT our intention. The house IS setup as a luxury property and is priced at a very good value considering the care, maintenance, cleanliness, amenities, and quality of everything included. Please consider the differences in value offered in different types of properties and what you are looking for. Additionally, please feel free to read the reviews from some of our valued guests - they go into great lengths in describing their stays at Hawk Manor, what to expect, what they liked, etc. Short term rental agreement and liability waiver must be signed before access will be granted. AC control is limited to 69 degrees and heat limited to 73 degrees. If that is outside your range of comfort, please discuss before booking. You are permitted to use everything except the attic and parts of the basement. Pool, tree swings, swing set, yard games, and gym equipment can be used at your own risk. Please be careful and use good judgement. No kids alone in the basement and nobody in the attic, please. No kids alone in pool area. The pool is open early May to late September. Bring your own pool towels (sorry, this is due to laundry capacity and turnover time). Do not touch the wooded area. You will likely contact poisonous plants. I am available for any of your needs. I will try to respond to messages and texts right away. In case of emergency, text and call as needed. The house has so much to offer that you never need to leave! The pool is amazing, there are some sports balls, cornhole, and a swing set. If you want to get some essentials or groceries, stores are nearby or you can order delivery from Shoprite on Instacart. There are short drives to golfing, skiing, and an endless amount of outdoor activities to do nearby.

You also have the option to order everything needed to deliver and not leave the house as it has everything you may need to stay and relax. Ubers can be hit or miss, but you can google a local taxi company (call in advance) to get around as well. I may have a contact to try for longer rides. Violations of House Rules will result in immediate cancellation of your entire stay, WITHOUT REFUND. Guest further acknowledges that if their stay is cancelled for house rule violations, Guest AUTHORIZES Airbnb and Host to revoke their right to review the host. During summer months, there is an outdoor refrigerator on the back porch. You can order Shop-Rite or Insta-cart delivery to be placed in the refrigerator before your arrival. If you would like to pay for, and schedule, daily or mid-trip cleaning, please notify me in advance and I will try to schedule it for you. Otherwise, common cleanliness is expected, i.e, clean dishes and do not leave messes, take out garbage daily, please clean up spills and do not allow staining on carpeting, furniture etc. You may hear loud sounds from neighbors target practicing and fireworks. Please no tape or other stickies on walls for decorating.
